Twlight....
I finally gave into the hype of the Stephanie Meyer Twilight series. It has been awhile since I have read a book for mere pleasure since Abby was born. So I gave it a try. The problem is, when I read a series, I tend to be completely distracted by it. Not able to really focus on anything until I have read everything the Author has written related to the story line. So I devoured the four books in just under two weeks, pretty much reading all night after Abby was in bed or napping. I have to admit the overall series was good and kept me reading, however in my humble opinion, it was very predictable. I guessed pretty much everything that happened. Even though I wanted those things to happen, it still was disappointing to find out they happened just how I was anticipating. This is no lie, I told Maegan what I thought would happen in Breaking Dawn and I was correct. However there were a few surprises when, the conclusion was the same but the path to get there was a bit different than I anticipated. Over all it was an easy read, the kind I like. Where you don't have to think a lot but you are distracted by the world around you as it provides an escape from reality.

Yeah, just when the last book couldn't get anymore ridiculous...it does! But I did love the series. I think the first one was my favorite. And I was of course happy that the ending was what we all hoped would happen. What's next on your list?
Yes, I think the easy read was the kicker for this series. Good stories but kind of boring with a LOT of hype. Anyway, glad you read them anyway!
Love you Lace!
